Question
Can I claim to be a self employed freelancer? I didn't take any jobs in 2022 Can I write off my laptop purchase?
AI accountant’s answer:
If you didn't have any self-employment income in 2022 and didn't perform any freelance work, you generally cannot claim to be a self-employed freelancer for tax purposes. To deduct business expenses like a laptop purchase, you need to be engaged in a trade or business with the intention of making a profit. Since you mentioned you didn't take any jobs in 2022, you wouldn't have any self-employment income or business expenses to report, which means you wouldn't be able to deduct your laptop as a business expense on your tax return.

Question
This is some text inside of a div block.
AI accountant’s answer:

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
